Night 48: F21-F30 Hallway

Mar 22, 2010 22:32

When the intercom finished another deliberately vague note, Lana was already standing at her door, flashlight in hand and scalpel securely in her coat pocket. She'd neglected to find out exactly how the doors worked at night, but the general idea was clear. Some time soon, they would open, and she had to be ready the moment they did ( Read more... )

The dinner hour had been quieter than the night previous, as Nunnally was wrapped up in her own thoughts and worries as she ate. Nobody had mentioned a field trip before, or any potential dangers that might be involved there. If something bad had happened last week, would it happen again? What could she do to help in such a situation? She had to think about this now, before it was too late and it became necessary to do something ( ... )

It didn't work completely, of course; neither of them would be able to just push Suzaku's disappearance away completely. All Nunnally could manage was a temporary distraction, giving herself time to consider just what she thought about it. She offered a smile to Lelouch in return with much the same thought behind it as his, and shook her head slightly. "Oh, not too much."

There was the part about Yuffie being a bad influence and hinting at all kinds of exploits back where she came from, but that was probably best not to mention at the moment. "She was curious about me, which doesn't seem surprising. And she offered to teach me more about origami once we have time to visit the arts and crafts room." Nunnally glanced down again, the corner of her mouth quirking up in a somewhat sad smile. "She reminded me of Milly, just a little."

"Does it? I'll have to remember that." The observation was spoken as though he'd had some experience with it, and Nunnally could only imagine how he'd learned about how difficult it must be to stop the teasing. What exactly had Yuffie found to harass Lelouch about, anyway? Now Nunnally was curious, and made a mental note to ask Yuffie about it if she managed to get the opportunity.

"There's a harder edge to her than most of the Student Council," she added, looking thoughtful. Yuffie was more -- intense, somehow. For all her lighthearted airs and joking, there was truth behind her statement that she'd done 'plenty of stuff' and Nunnally suspected not all of it was even so quiet as making dramatic speeches on a table in the middle of the cafeteria. "But I liked her. Is there something in particular I should be careful of?"

Don't take everything at face value. Don't tell her more than necessary. It was like Lelouch expected Yuffie to be dangerous somehow, which -- well, it wasn't a possibility that Nunnally would completely discount. At the same time, though, they had to trust someone here, and she hadn't seen anything to indicate that Yuffie was untrustworthy. She could keep her senses alert, though, if it would make Lelouch more comfortable. He didn't need to be dragged down by having to worry about her constantly. (Not that it was likely to stop, knowing him. Or knowing him as he used to be, as this Lelouch was now... would it ever stop being so confusing ( ... )

For as much as Nunnally disliked deception, she still understood the need to simply not say certain things, or deflect questions when necessary. The two of them had managed to survive for years in an occupied Area 11 without anyone but a select few knowing that they were in truth missing Britannian royalty, after all, and even if she didn't quite understand the need not to mention their lineage in a place where Britannia apparently didn't even exist...well, Lelouch had been here longer than she had. She could trust his judgment for the moment, at least until she had a chance to study the situation for herself and make her own decision ( ... )

Now that he looked at least a little less unhappy Nunnally was far more comfortable with asking him questions, though she did intend to leave some of the more pointed ones for later. Why had he looked so distressed a moment ago? Did he truly believe that she would utterly reject him for asking that she keep certain things a secret ( ... )
